I'm also really looking forward to that game, as well. I will probably take off work to watch that game live so I don't have to deprive/isolate myself again.

It's been said that Argentina are the heavy favorites for this game, looking at motivation, for the most part (as I said earlier, England didn't show up for their game against Sweden). But great stuff comes from these teams when they match up (the top two "Goals of the Century" [yahoo.com] - including my favorite, the Michael Owen goal).

Unfortunately I forgot to tape the bloody England-Sweden game so I can't really comment but by all accounts England played poorly.

I too voted for the Michael Owen goal. Can't say I'm surprised that Maradona's effort got first place though - it was a classic - unlike his earlier "hand of god" goal. I remember watching that game (as a wee 13 year old) and could not believe he got away with that.
